Job Description:

Responsibilities

Architect, optimize, and evolve data storage solutions and data models, including medallion architecture (bronze, silver, gold layers), for scalable and cost-efficient lakehouse platforms on Azure and Databricks.

Integrate data from diverse internal and external sources, ensuring interoperability and consistency across platforms.

Apply data governance, security, privacy, and compliance standards within engineering solutions, following organizational and regulatory guidelines.

Design, build, and maintain scalable ETL/ELT pipelines for ingesting, transforming, and delivering data from diverse sources (structured, semi-structured, unstructured) using Azure Data Factory, Databricks, and related tools.

Implement workflow orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, dbt) for managing complex data workflows.

Ensure data quality, consistency, and reliability through robust validation, monitoring, and error-handling processes.

Implement privacy and security best practices in data pipelines (e.g., data masking, encryption, role-based access control).

Engage with data scientists, analysts, and business stakeholders to understand data requirements and deliver solutions that drive business value.

Communicate complex technical concepts through clear, actionable insights and documentation tailored to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Foster alignment and adoption of data engineering solutions by building strong relationships and ensuring business relevance.

Mentor and support junior engineers, promoting a culture of learning and excellence.

Optimize data engineering capabilities by leveraging existing and emerging tools and technologies, with a focus on performance, cost efficiency, scalability, data workflow management, and reliable deployment.

Build and manage real-time / streaming data pipelines using Azure Event Hubs, Kafka, or Spark Structured Streaming.

Collaborate with data scientists to enable seamless integration of data pipelines with analytics and machine learning workflows, including ML model deployment and monitoring.

Complete other responsibilities as assigned.
